How do you get past your writer's block? (beehaw.org)

So I have been writing since... I can remember, let's say at least 15 years. From short stories about all kinds of stuff to more fleshed out things, I just love expressing myself creatively, you get what I mean right?

So anyways, since I would say 3 years or so I couldn't write anything. I really want to continue, but I just can't get myself to do it. And I don't want to force myself because maybe then it turns out to be just bad, you know?

Maybe it's my personal situation that has changed, maybe it's just something that keeps me from it... but I would like to know what you do of you experience a writer's block!

BTW this is my first post on here since I just registered on here and I want to try leaving Reddit... just FYI

So basically, you suggest to just write down whatever you can think of and later sort the ... not so great stuff out haha? I mean sounds like an idea, but since my work is fiction, it's hard to just write down everything when it has to make at least a little bit of sense inside the world that I try to create. Am I making any sense right now?
